Carefully processed and cleaned with greatest attention to the color and texture.

Lighting became another way to integrate simplicity and harmony to the home’s overall design; but like every other element of our project, modernity and time honored practices of craftsmanship needed to fuse. In the master suite, fabricating the light troughs proved to be an interesting challenge. Given the extreme length of the faces and bottoms of the light trough (after 15), using solid cherry for their construction was impractical. A thin birch plywood substrate was built and 1/8" thick cherry veneers were applied. The resulting material was used for the faces and bottoms of the trough. The resultant birch/cherry composite material was reinforced with an elaborate lamination process that included a thin fiberglass veil for strength and flexibility. Other lighting was chosen to wash light over surfaces or to hang—lantern style to provide soft light and aesthetic embellishment. Here again, the design is highly influenced by the Japanese aesthetic.

Our customer wanted a unique way to close off the mud room from the family room and chose to go with reclaimed chestnut which has a great patina. The door is 1 1/2 inch thick constructed with chestnut on both sides and finished in a Z cross brace pattern. This is a beefy door with heavy duty rollers and forged slide adding to the character of the door.

Kitchen - traditional kitchen idea

A traditional downstairs half bath turned into a fresh and slightly more modern full bath. With aging in place in mind, we created a walk-in shower with easy to clean tile, spacious cabinets, and used elements that tie into the home's original style.
